Abstract

The most visible aim of the ACELA (architecture of a computer environment for Lie algebras) project is the production of a state-of-the-art interactive book on Lie algebras; state-of-the-art mathematically as well as in its interactive potential. While we have chosen this as a worthwhile and challenging goal by itself, this target also serves as a concrete milestone for our longer-term aims, offering a realistic and far from trivial testing ground for our ideas.
